Product details
Overview
IMZ120R140M1HXKSA1 from Infineon is a 1200V, 19A silicon carbide trench MOSFET in PG-TO247-4 package with 140mΩ RDS(on) at 25°C, 4.5V gate threshold voltage, and integrated source sense pin for optimized switching. It delivers low switching losses (Eon = 62µJ, Eoff = 12µJ @ 25°C), robust body diode operation, and operates up to 175°C junction temperature-used in solar string inverters and industrial UPS power stages.
For engineers reviewing the IMZ120R140M1HXKSA1 datasheet, IMZ120R140M1HXKSA1 pinout, IMZ120R140M1HXKSA1 application, or IMZ120R140M1HXKSA1 equivalent, key selection factors include its 1200V blocking capability, 4-pin Kelvin-source configuration, temperature-independent turn-off losses, and qualification for industrial environments per JEDEC 47/20/22.
Technical Context
This SiC MOSFET employs a trench-gate structure enabling high channel density and low RDS(on), with a benchmark VGS(th) of 4.5V and zero-volt turn-off gate drive compatibility. Its fully controllable dV/dt and robust body diode support hard commutation without external freewheeling diodes.
The device features separate source (Pin 2) and sense (Pin 3) terminals to eliminate source inductance impact on gate control, ensuring stable switching performance across temperature. Thermal resistance Rth(j-c) is 1.2–1.6 K/W, supporting high-power-density designs in constrained thermal environments.

Equivalent & Alternatives
The following parts are listed as comparable options for similar 1200V SiC MOSFET applications.
| Alternative Part | Technical Difference | Application Difference | Selection Advice |
|---|---|---|---|
| STP120N140S5 | 140mΩ RDS(on), but 1200V rating with higher QG (17nC) and no Kelvin source pin | Lacks sense pin; requires careful gate loop layout to avoid oscillation in >50kHz designs | Preferred where cost sensitivity outweighs gate control precision and layout complexity is manageable |
| C3M0140120K | 140mΩ RDS(on), TO247-4L package, but VGS(th) = 2.5V (lower noise immunity) | Lower threshold increases risk of false turn-on in noisy industrial environments | Selected when gate driver supports tighter VGS tolerance and system EMI filtering is robust |
Compared with STP120N140S5 and C3M0140120K, IMZ120R140M1HXKSA1 offers superior gate control stability via Kelvin source, higher VGS(th) margin, and JEDEC-qualified industrial reliability-making it optimal for mission-critical, high-frequency, and thermally constrained applications.

FAQ
What is the purpose of the sense pin (Pin 3) on IMZ120R140M1HXKSA1?
The sense pin (Pin 3) provides a Kelvin connection to the source, isolating gate drive feedback from high-current source paths. This eliminates voltage drop-induced gate control errors during fast switching, ensuring stable VGS regulation and preventing oscillation-even under high di/dt conditions typical in 100kHz+ converters.
Can IMZ120R140M1HXKSA1 be driven with a standard 15V gate driver without negative bias?
Yes. Its 0V turn-off gate voltage specification and 4.5V VGS(th) allow reliable operation using only a single positive rail (e.g., 0V/15V or 0V/18V). No negative bias is required, simplifying driver design and reducing component count versus devices needing –5V turn-off.
How does the body diode performance compare to discrete SiC Schottky diodes?
The integrated body diode supports hard commutation with Qrr = 100nC (25°C) and Irrm = 2A, eliminating need for external anti-parallel diodes in totem-pole PFC or bidirectional converters. While slower than dedicated SiC Schottky diodes, its ruggedness and co-packaged thermal coupling improve system reliability and reduce layout complexity.
Is IMZ120R140M1HXKSA1 qualified for automotive applications?
No. It is qualified for industrial applications per JEDEC 47/20/22 standards-not AEC-Q101. For automotive use, Infineon's CoolSiC™ Automotive series (e.g., IMZA120R140M1H) provides extended temperature range, enhanced EMC robustness, and full AEC-Q101 qualification including HTGB and UHAST testing.
